They don't want to do that because it would totally invalidate cloakers. You just run multiple scanners, use a delay chain to activate them in sequence, and no ship could ever be cloaked near you again.

Eh, docked armor PANELS on the OUTSIDE of the ship are fine and dandy. People who dock the ENTIRE hull of the ship, however, are causing major problems. Destroying a ship with a full docked hull where the inside systems start having to glitch through the hull upon destruction/undocking creates...

Logic Pipe Animated Decorations: Put an activator above and below your room, then slave the top activator to the bottom one. The logic pipe animation will then cause a pulse to travel from top to bottom (from the slave to the master). Looks great as decorations around your transporter pads...

I can when the context of the conversation leading up to it was all about spaghetti lines. Not my fault you decided to ignore the conversation and throw in stuff that wasn't being discussed.

Ah what the hell, gets boring building in single player. IGN- Edymnion Why you want to join the server- Creative mode building gets boring on single player. Chatting is good, as is stealing ideas from... I mean taking inspiration from the cool things everybody else is doing. Example of your...

I didn't say anything about Aux Power, I said Power. As in Power Generators. The spaghetti lines. I have never once had any problem at all fitting in power generator lines to get to cap in anything but the tiniest of ships. Aux is easy, it scales like capacitors so big blobs. I think the...

Honestly I think they seriously need to do something to utterly and completely break everyone's ships. I mean flat out restart from scratch on everything. WAY too many people around here seem to be WAY too attached to their old designs for their own good.

Oh yeah, as for modifying the game settings, I always up the build area. The default area of 10x is just WAY too small to be of any use at all to me. I usually up it to 100 for general use, and there are times (like when I'm building large shipyards) that I crank it up to 250 or even 500 so...

I've never found power to be a problem on anything but the tiniest of ships. Generally speaking, I can build whatever hull I want and toss in reactor lines and hit the power cap quite easily without ever having to plan around where said lines will have to be beforehand.

While a lot of people are a little... disillusioned on building anything major right now due to the uncertainty of if/when power is going to change, how about a bit of focus on improving our decorating ability? Post up pictures of some of your favorite decorating tricks, maybe we'll all learn a...

Okay, being perfectly honest, I use docked scanners on my stations all the time. Not really bothered by it because they're home base stations, and I take the docker off the bar entirely for it, so its never going to actually undock inside the station. But, if getting around the "No scanners on...

Another example I like to use (in a station control room I just started this morning): Damage Beam Modules with the grate sides pointing out as force field emitters. Might also have spotted where I'm using Warp Gate Modules as wall decorations as well. And the Logic Gate Modules side...

First thing I do on a new (survival) map is to buy all of the components I need to establish a planetside base immediately. No ship parts, I'm buying up factories, reactors, enhancers, parts to build a defense turret, undeathinator, etc. Then I shoot out looking for a good system. Thats kinda...

1/2 slab for seat. 1/4 vertical slabs for arms and backs. Light bars for arm rests/consoles :D

Yeah, I can see the build number now, but it still isn't launching. Gonna wipe everything and redownload from scratch.

You misunderstand my use of modular. I don't mean it as referring to docked entities. I mean it as it's actual mundane definition. Most people understand the concept of a reactor, or an engine. That it is a discrete part of the vehicle or whatever that produces the power for the rest of said...

Yeah, I got the same thing. I had just updated, tried to launch, nothing happened. Had to kill the process manually. Then I started seeing no build number all.

Yup, light bars and light rods can be turned off specifically so they can be used as decorative pieces. Even the derelict stations (which I know were originally player designed, but they were placed into the default game by Schine, so I'm rolling with it) use things like deactivated light rods...

This is basically just capital ships, which they've already said is coming.

1) You asked why it was not intuitive, and he gave you the short answer for the entire history of power generation known to man, and points out how it is nothing like what we have in game in any way, and you dismiss that? Dude answered your question perfectly, with far more grace than I would...
